By your rationale...he should have made that so-called "jump" this year. He's started an entire season already...and he looked exactly the same.

That's one way to spin it. Again, I've agreed that they did all they could with the new staff to give Lynch the easy path to success. Lynch failed.
Trevor didn't win it by default, he retained his position. And, if by exactly the same means he will be in the 3700 yard range with a TD/INT ratio of 25/14... I'm good with that. Trevor needed to complete about 1.4 more passes a game last year to have a completion rate in the 65% range. Not terrible by any definition.
So, however you spin it... I think they're in a good spot, despite Lynch flaming out. They lost very little in that investment.
